[Maemo 5] Anagramarama (Optimized)
 
2 Attachment(s)
This is my first contribution so far, and I still need some knowledge regarding packaging the game, but here are the files and instructions to install it.
Compiled using MADDE, on my Arch Linux.

The biggest problem there was (and sometimes still is), is that sometimes there are too many answer boxes in the bottom, and therefore they reach out of the screen, making some of it hidden.

What I have done:
- Optimized it as much as I can for 800x480 screen.
- Fullscreen.
- Removed black pointer.

So pretty much all credits to the original creator, I have only ported it to Maemo 5.

Instructions:
1. Download the compressed folder under attachments.
2. Untar the compressed folder
Code:

tar xf anagramarama.tar
3. Copy the new folder (anagramarama) to your n900, using either cable or ssh.
4. Copy/Move the folder to /opt/ (In my case I had to do this on the xterm in the phone, as I have only access to the home folders when using cable)
5. chmod the binary (as root) to +x
Code:

chmod +x anagramarama
6. Run the game within the folder
Code:

./anagramarama
Side note:
If you want, you can "translate" the game, simply by editing the words within wordlist.txt.

If anybody wants to package it for me, feel free to do this.

Anagramarama is a GPL application. As such you must make your source-code modifications available along with the binary.
If you do - maybe then they can get merged upstream too.
How is the CPU usage when running the game? You might find the lowcpu patch included in my git repository useful. See http://www.patthoyts.tk/gitweb.cgi for the Anagramarama fork.

I will put the source code for download as soon as I get to my desktop pc.
Regarding the CPU usage, I have not tested that, but I will definetly have a look at your fork, when I get on my desktop pc.

EDIT: Uploaded the source.
